An aqueous 0.300 M glucose solution is prepared with a total volume of 0.150 L. The molecular weight of

glucose is 180.16

mol

What mass of glucose (in grams) is needed for the solution?

We need 8.11 grams of glucose for this solution

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Molarity of the glucose solution = 0.300 M

Total volume = 0.150 L

The molecular weight of glucose = 180.16 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles of glucose in the solution

Moles glucose = molarity solution * volume

Moles glucose = 0.300 M * 0.150 L

Moles glucose = 0.045 moles glucose

Step 3: Calculate mass of glucose

MAss glucose = moles glucose * molecular weight of glucose

MAss glucose = 0.045 moles * 180.16 g/mol

MAss glucose = 8.11 grams

We need 8.11 grams of glucose for this solution
